Full Description
Pillbox - better position for TQ 77 SE 120. Located during previous site survey (1) and on photograph (2). Seen in 2004. The position of the pillbox appeared to be inaccurate. The position TQ77037122 (estimated from source), was updated with the present GPS derived position. The 2004 survey brought to light that this pillbox TQ 77 SE 1030 may in fact be the same as the existing record TQ 77 SE 119. The presence of a number of pillboxes along Cockham Reach and Upnor Reach may have led to the creation of an extra record for a pillbox with an inaccurate position. This may have led to the creation of a record for a pillbox that did not exist. The pillbox in this position was observed to be lying at an angle, though its structure was still intact. (3)
